March for Life

We made it to the annual March for Life this year. It is a profoundly moving, peaceful, silent march (held in many cities across the country) to remember all the lives lost since Roe v. Wade in 1973.

First we went to the Mass for the Unborn and then ate our lunch in the car . . .

And, then we marched . . .

We can still do something today to continue speaking up for unborn children, their mothers, and our country. President Obama stated during his campaign that, upon inauguration, he would sign the Freedom of Choice Act (FOCA) into law, which would "invalidate common-sense, protective laws that the majority of Americans support including parental involvement, bans on partial-birth abortion, and protections for healthcare providers who object to participating in abortions” (summary by Americans United for Life).
